Thanks for all the good Styx earworms-”Renegade” is my favorite Styx song. I heard this on the way home and have been humming it-

In the shuffling madness
Of the locomotive breath,
Runs the all-time loser,
Headlong to his death.
He feels the piston scraping
Steam breaking on his brow
Thank God, he stole the handle and
The train won’t stop going
No way to slow down.

He sees his children jumping off
At the stations one by one.
His woman and his best friend
In bed and having fun.
He’s crawling down the corridor
On his hands and knees
Old Charlie stole the handle and
The train won’t stop going
No way to slow down.

He hears the silence howling
Catches angels as they fall.
And the all-time winner
Has got him by the balls.
He picks up Gideon’s Bible
Open at page one
God stole the handle and
The train won’t stop going
No way to slow down.

He picks up Gideon’s Bible

Gideon checked out
And he left it, no doubt
To help with good Rocky's revival
